Nexus 56K and FEX 2232TM - connect a router to the FEX?

Hi I know the recommendation a couple of years back was only to connect servers to FEX ports. Is this still the case? Is anyone connecting devices other than servers to FEX ports? Is there any good reason I could not connect a router to my FEX 2232 TM and form a layer 3 adjacency with an SVI on the parent 5K?
(going to post this in DC as well as it is relevant to both)
Any assistance would be great,
Thanks
Rays

Hi Rays,
The function should be the same for all FEXs regardless of what parent switch they connect to. to.
if you are referring to this comment:
You can connect any edge switch that leverages a link redundancy mechanism not dependent on spanning tree such as Cisco FlexLink or vPC
FelxLink is a different technology that does not use STP, but not every switch platform supports FelxLink. FlexLink is not used very often, as other technologies like VSS, VPC and stacking has emerged.

    When I've had a similar problem, it was because I was accessing the iTunes store from a device I hadn't used before, such as when I upgraded from an iPad 1 to the iPad 2.  It was a little confusing to me until I figured it out.
    All I had to do was use the ID of my existing account and play along with the iTunes store.  As I recall, it asked for my password twice, and the security code from the back of my credit card.  After that, downloads proceeded as before.

    hi,
    somewhere on the windows machineshould be something like "network setup wizard". exactly where it is and what it is called i cannot remember off the top of my head, windows help is actually slightly useful here, it should have a link to it.
    all the options checked on the mac are only what services the mac is offering to other machines, they have nothing to do with the services it can access (mostly...).
    oh yeah, to actually connect to the pc after you have turned its sharing on, use the finder, or, when it does not show the pc (this happens on and off, possibly a refresh problem apple...) choose go --> connect to server and enter smb://<pc's name or ip>
    to find the ip, the easiest way i think is
    start --> run --> cmd ->> ipconfig

  • Setting up a new TC.  Everything went fine.  I was able to connect a macbook air, 2 ipads, an Iphone 6, and even a windows 7 PC.  All devices showed a complete and functioning internet connection, but none of the devices could access the internet.

    I am trying to set up internet connection to my home using a 3gig Airport time capsule as a router.  I unplugged the cable from the existing router, and plugged it into the ethernet port of the TC.  The TC fired up found tttttttthe internet connection, and glowed green.  I set up the password, and all, and was then able to connect a Windows 7 PC, 2 ipads, and iphone 6, and a macbbook air, all running the most current os.  All devices connect with the internet via the Airport device.  they all say that there is a fully functioning internet connection, but none of them can actually connect to the internet.  When I run a speed test via OKLA I am told that the test failed to innatiate.When I try to do a search I get an error message that the page cannot open because safari cannot make a secure connection to the server.
    Any suggestions?

    Inside the house I have what looks like a phone cable that is plugged into a power supply, and into a router.
    What is this router?? Is it the TC or a router supplied by the ISP?
    It will depend on how the system works.. but the instructions from skybeam are fairly simple.. you just setup a router with dhcp set on the WAN port for connection.
    On the airport utility open your TC by clicking it then clicking edit.
    Make sure the WAN is set correctly and the ISP ethernet cable is plugged into it.
    And make sure Network is set to DHCP and NAT.
    Please give me the screenshots of the same things from your setup.

  • TS1398 Ever since I upgraded to iOS 7.0.4 my wifi strength is very weak and I have connection issues all of the time.

    I upgraded my iPad 3 to 7.0.4 and now I have wifi issues I never had before and apple customer support is no help. Does anybody know how to solve this issue?

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

  • Connecting a router at the end of DSL line using 255.255.255.255 subnet mas

    Hello there, I am going to attach one Cisco 1760 router at the end of DSL line. My service provider has given us one static IP address with 255.255.255.255 subnet mask and no gateway address. I am going to run IPSec VPN between this router and our center router over the Internet. However, with the given IP address, it seems that I cannot make this VPN tunnel as we do not have the IP address for the default gateway. do you think I can use this IP address with 255.255.255.255 subnet mask and no gateway to achieve my goal?

    Hi
    You can setup the easy vpn server/client setup here for the VPN connectivity between ur locations.
    Your central router will act as the easy vpn server accepting the tunnels from the easy vpn clients which is nothing but your remote locations.
    But before getting this configured i would suggest to check out whether both ur routers support the configuration required for the same.
    basically u need to have the required ios in ur router to support them up also the required h/w resources like DRAM,FLASH to hold the supported IOS code..
    Pls check this link for more info on how to configure the same..

    The device will have to be restored but without the last computer it was synced to, that's not a possibility.
    Take the iPod to an Apple store or Apple certified repair shop.

  • NEXUS 56128 and FEX with beakout cable

    Hello,
    using two NEXUS 56128 , I wish to create enhanced VPC architecture with FEX 2248TP.
    My question is : can I use 40Gbs ports on NX56128 with QSFP breakout DAC cable (40G to 4x10G) to connect FEX 2248 ?
    regards

    Hi Yallies,
    For the Nexus 56128 (http://cs.co/9002c2aC) , it supports 8 true 40 GE QSFP ports and up to 96 10GE ports ( of which 48 are UP). Since the Nexus 5600 supports high density fabric extender aggregation platform, they can be used with the Nexus 2248PQ, 2248TP. Feel free to message me directly for further assistance. Hope this helps! :)
